(Botanical view on Curcuma longa)

It is native to the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia, and requires temperatures between 20 and 30 °C (68–86 °F) and a considerable amount of annual rainfall to thrive. Turmeric powder has a warm, bitter, and pepper-like flavor and earthy, mustard like aroma.[1-2] Turmeric is a perennial herbaceous plant that reaches up to 1 m (3 ft. 3 in) tall. Highly branched, yellow to orange, cylindrical, aromatic rhizomes are found. The leaves are alternate and arranged in two rows. They are divided into leaf sheath, petiole, and leaf blade. The simple leaf blades are usually 76 to 115 cm (30–45 in) long and rarely up to 230 cm (91 in). They have a width of 38 to 45 cm (15–18 in) and are oblong to elliptic, narrowing at the tip.

Inflorescence, flower, and fruit: The hermaphrodite flowers are zygomorphic and threefold. The three 0.8 to 1.2 cm (0.3–0.5 in) long sepals are fused, white, have fluffy hairs and the three calyx teeth are unequal. The three bright-yellow petals are fused into a corolla tube up to 3 cm (1.2 in) long. The three corolla lobes have a length of 1.0 to 1.5 cm (0.39–0.59 in) and are triangular with soft-spiny upper ends.

Uses Medical research: Turmeric or its principal constituent, curcumin, has been studied in numerous clinical trials for various human diseases and conditions, but the conclusions have either been uncertain or negative.

Traditional uses: In Ayurvedic and Siddha practices, turmeric has been used as an attempted treatment for a variety of internal disorders, such as indigestion, throat infections, common colds, or liver ailments, as well as topically, to cleanse wounds or treat skin sores.[3-4]

2. Colchicum autumnale(Colchicaceae) Scientific classification Kingdom: Plantae Clade: Angiosperms Clade: Monocots Order: Liliales Family: Colchicaceae Genus: Colchicum Species: C. autumnale

(Botanical view on Colchicum autumnale)

Colchicum autumnale, commonly known as autumn crocus, meadow saffron[5] or naked ladies. Colchicum autumnale is the only species of its family native to the Great Britain and Ireland.[6] With notable populations under the stewardship of the County Wildlife Trusts. It also occurs across mainland Europe from Portugal to Ukraine, and is reportedly naturalized in Denmark, Sweden, European Russia, the Baltic states and New Zealand.[7] The bulb-like corms of Colchicum autumnale contain colchicine, a useful drug with a narrow therapeutic index. Colchicine is approved by the US FDA for the treatment of gout and familial Mediterranean fever. Colchicine is also used in plant breeding to produce polyploid strains. Colchicum plants are deadly poisonous due to their colchicine content, and have been mistaken by foragers for ramsons, which they vaguely resemble.[8] The symptoms of colchicine poisoning resemble those of arsenic, and no antidote is known.

3. Citrullus colocynthis Scientific classification Kingdom: Plantae (Unranked): Angiosperms (Unranked): (Unranked): Rosids Order: Cucurbitales Family: Cucurbitaceae Genus: Citrullus Species: C. colocynthis

(Botanical view on Citrullus colocynthis)

Origin, distribution, and ecology: C. colocynthis is a desert viny plant that grows in sandy, arid soils. It is native to the Mediterranean Basin and Asia, and is distributed among the west coast of northern Africa, eastward through the Sahara, Egypt until India, and reaches also the north coast of the Mediterranean and the Caspian Seas. It grows also in southern European countries as in Spain and on the islands of the Grecian archipelago.

Characteristics and morphology: The roots are large, fleshy, and perennial, leading to a high survival rate due to the long tap root. The vine-like stems spread in all directions for a few meters looking for something over which to climb. If present, shrubs and herbs are preferred and climbed by means of axiliary branching tendrils.[9] Very similar to watermelon, the leaves are palmate and angular with three to seven divided lobes. The flowers are yellow and solitary in the axes of leaves and are borne by yellow-greenish peduncles. Each has a subcampanulated five-lobed corolla and a five-parted calyx. They are monoecious, so the www.wjpr.net Vol 7, Issue 12, 2018. 204

Lokendra et al. World Journal of Pharmaceutical Research

male (stamens) and the female reproductive parts (pistils and ovary) are borne in different flowers on the same plant. The male flowers’ calyx is shorter than the corolla. The fruit is smooth, spheric with a 5– to 10-cm-diameter and extremely bitter taste. The calyx englobe the yellow-green fruit which becomes marble (yellow stripes) at maturity. The mesocarp is filled with a soft, dry, and spongy white pulp, in which the seeds are embedded. Each of the three carpels bears six seeds. Each plant produces 15 to 30 fruits.[10]

The seeds are grey and 5 mm long by 3 mm wide. They are edible but similarly bitter, nutty- flavored, and rich in fat and protein. They are eaten whole or used as an oilseed. The oil content of the seeds is 17–19% (w/w), consisting of 67–73% linoleic acid, 10–16% oleic acid, 5–8% stearic acid, and 9–12% palmitic acid. The oil yield is about 400 l/hectare.[11]

Uses: C. colocynthis can be eaten or elaborated for further uses in medicine and as energy source, e.g. oilseed and biofuel.

The wild onion is extinct and ancient records of using onions span western and eastern Asia, the geographic origin of the onion is uncertain,[34-35] with likely domestication worldwide.[36] The onion plant has been grown and selectively bred in cultivation for at least 7,000 years. It is a biennial plant, but is usually grown as an annual. Modern varieties typically grow to a height of 15 to 45 cm (6 to 18 in). The leaves are yellowish- to bluish green and grow alternately in a flattened, fan-shaped swathe. They are fleshy, hollow, and cylindrical, with one flattened side. As the onion matures, food reserves begin to accumulate in the leaf bases and the bulb of the onion swells.[37]
